Analysis Of The Classification And Application Fields Of Common Metal Plates
As a basic material in the fields of modern industry and architecture, metal plates have become key materials in industries such as building structures, decoration, and machinery manufacturing, thanks to their excellent physical properties and flexible workability. The following systematically analyzes the functions and values of mainstream metal plates from three dimensions: classification, characteristics, and core applications.

I. Classification Standards of Metal Plates
1. Classified by thickness: They are divided into thin plates (0.2 - 4mm), medium plates (4 - 20mm), thick plates (20 - 60mm), and extra - thick plates (>60mm), meeting the strength requirements of different scenarios.
2. Classified by production process: It includes hot - rolled plates (rolled at high temperature with high strength) and cold - rolled plates (with a delicate surface and high precision).
3. Classified by surface treatment: Galvanized plates (for anti - corrosion), tin - plated plates (specially used for food packaging), color - coated plates (with decorative coatings), composite plates (composed of multiple layers of materials), etc.
4. Classified by purpose: It covers more than ten types of specialized products such as building structural plate...
